The Triangle's first omakase counter, M Sushi brought Japanese precision to downtown Durham using domestic and sustainably sourced Japanese fish.
OrderOmakase nigiri, House-made tofu, Seasonal sashimi
The Triangle's first true omakase counter, M Sushi on Holland Street sets a course of nigiri that rotates with season and sourcing. Michael Lee's sushi programme imports directly from domestic sustainable fisheries and builds rice with a precision that signals genuine training. For a city of Durham's size, having a first-rate omakase counter available is the strongest single evidence that the Bull City food scene has matured past regional curiosity into genuine national relevance.
